My V3 lume is non-existent. Perhaps the worst lume on any rep I've had.

Did you try charging it in sunlight or daylight artificial light? Normal artificial light, LED light doesn't charge mine too
There's hardly any sun here lol, will try it under a daylight bulb

I retract this comment!
Put my watch under a daylight bulb and it GLOWS. Wow.

Has anyone ordered one of these? Are they any better/closer to gen than the nato strap that came with it?

Look beyond the third photo where it actually starts showing the strap they're sale and not the gen one...it looks a lot worse than the nato that comes with the VSFs.

My lume is also non-existent unless I hold a light over it for a minute which is kinda stupid imo and then the lume only lasts a 10-15 minutes before fading pretty drastically. I have a VSF planet ocean rep that has an amazing lume, shame they couldnt do the same for this higher profile rep. It has been cloudy here so Idk if sunlight will make it perform better or not or will hold a lume better, i doubt it, but so far it's the only thing i hate about this watch and it really bothers me, might sell it on reptime and order another one tbh.
Edit: obviously if someone on here is interested despite the lume, lmk, I'm located in the US and would be happy to work out a deal.

You’re a week too late! ???? I’ve ordered mine from Andrew and it’s on the way. I’m disappointed to hear about the lume: I’m already missing out on all the functionality, so I was hoping that the lume would beat my Bremont’s at least.

I wouldn't order that one. Looks like a V1 with V3 bracelet.

Why they want to release a all steel version for almost same price like the Titanium one instead of working on a Titanium mesh?! ????*
Again, it's probably just their left over V1 cases with V3 bracelets. So it's not something the factory has been "working on" rather than a titanium bracelet, just clearing old stock.

jep, it's V1 with V3 Bracelet Like you said - clearing Stock as nobody wants the V1.
Wow that is confusing and misleading. I don't think it said "all stainless steel version" a few weeks ago. I ordered this thinking I was ordering the newest titanium version. All is saw was VSF and V3. Fingers crossed Andrew will correct this for me since it hasn't shipped yet.

It has always said SS/SS. The only change has been the addition of the v3 bracelet. The price and the fact that you can tell its a stainless case in the photos should have been a giveaway.
I can't see him correcting it as there is a price difference between the two. I'm sure if you send him more money he will gladly send the newest Ti/SS version.
Yeah I think I just screwed up. I didn't realize he had two versions of the vsf on there. He's always been good to deal with so I'm sure he'll sort it out for me.
